Archie Andrews

Let’s be honest: every year, Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC) continues to grow – and what was once the pantheon for all things comics has become the place to be if you’re a film or television series looking to make traction with an eager geek fanbase looking to rest their eyeballs on something worthy. Then […]

The CW‘s Riverdale is a bonkers show. It takes the cast and setting of a cute, cozy comic book series and turns it on its head. Instead of Archie and his friends worrying about high school and dating antics, it’s a full-on apocalyptic melodrama about the horrible underbelly of America. Everything that was comforting and […]

Riverdale was more of an anthology series last night, as each character in the Fab Four had their own 15 minute mini-episode within an episode. After last week’s big emotional episode with Archie and Veronica “breaking up” and Betty being committed, this week sees our heroes try to pick up the pieces as the mysteries […]

Riverdale fans, we are getting their version of The Shawshank Redemption, and I am here for it. If by the time Archie escapes/is released from prison he is not standing in the rain, arms outstretched ala Andy Dufrane, what are we even doing here? Archie is now the warden’s plaything, and this week that meant […]

Riverdale went full-on prison kink in last nights episode, with exposed six-packs, macho stand-offs in the yard, cat-calling, and even a football game! Archie is officially behind bars, and you can tell the writers room is excited about it. We get many scenes of Archie and his new prison pals gettin gin each others […]

Riverdale has a new wave of Funko Pops to track down soon. Announced today, there will be six new Pops hitting stores in November.

Riverdale fans, we have a episode description for the season 3 premiere, titled ‘Labor Day’. Looks like we are getting another Archie/Veronica, Jughead/Betty double date! Those always end well right? AND THE VERDICT IS… — As the jury begins deliberations in his murder trial, Archie (KJ Apa) makes a surprising request about how he wants […]

Riverdale Funko Pops have been revealed! Thanks to some fans that got their hands on two of them at Funko HQ this weekend, we know that the first wave will consist of Archie, Jughead, Betty, Veronica, and Cheryl Blossom. A couple things here. It looks like Hot Topic will receive an early release for these. […]

I think it’s safe to call the first season of Riverdale a breakout success for the CW. The dark and twisted adaptation of the Archie Comics characters started of with a murder and ended with a shooting. Definitely not what I remember reading from those comics when I was a kid. The second season of […]

Riverdale is based on the Archie Comics characters of Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, Jughead Jones and the rest of the gang, but with a dark and modern twist. Archie Comics also own the Red Circle or now Dark Circle line of comics which includes a character called the Black Hood. This is what […]

The CW is rolling out a lot of four to five-minute long videos that they’re showing at Comic-Con today. And to go with the Riverdale panel, they shared a blooper reel that will be appearing on the home release of the first season, and then a short trailer for Riverdale Season 2. The trailer picks […]

Cheryl Blossom has been one of the more interesting characters on Riverdale in the first season. She recently lied to her parents about the ring, keeping it after tell them she got rid of it. So, where do her loyalties really lie? Executive producer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa told EW.com that the last two episode dives into […]

In a new sneak peek clip for the April 27th episode of Riverdale, Archie Andrew (K. J. Apa) and Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes) perform a cover of Kids in America by Kim Wilde at the school dance / prom. Everyone seems to be really enjoying the performance… except for Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart) and Cheryl […]

Warner Bros showed a highlight reel for their new series Riverdale while they were at Wondercon. It showcased not only some of the more dramatic moments so far this season but also some of the upcoming moments, like the arrival of Molly Ringwald as Archie’s mom. The series is getting a lot of attention form […]

The second episode of Riverdale airs tonight and the actors who play Archie (K J Apa) and Jughead (Cole Sprouse) talk about the relationship between the two and how it got fractured. Apa also addresses the guilt Archie feels about not being able to come forward that he was at the lake when Jason Blossom […]

This is going to be a heavy CW day with the recaps of Flash and Legends, previews for Arrow and the interviews below for Riverdale. They’ve been rolling these out steadily for the last week, but now we get to the main man himself, Archie Andrews played by K. J. Apa who tells us about […]

Less than a week away from the premiere of Riverdale on the CW and we have Camila Mendes talking about her role as Veronica Lodge. Her and her mom are moving to town with their tail a bit between their legs as her father is busted for illegal financial activities. She wants to take the […]

The CW has been teasing out Riverdale for a while now, but we get our first full trailer for the new series and it looks pretty wild. This is definitely a more modern take on the old Archie Comics. But then again it all starts with a dead body… Riverdale is from Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, produced […]

It looks like the new Riverdale series will be kicking off with a dead body. That’s not something you normally associate with an Archie Comic. The new series from Greg Berlanti feels as much like Twin Peaks as it does the town many of us grew up reading about. Who is Jason and how does […]

We have our first look at KJ Apa as Archie Andrews in the upcoming CW pilot for Riverdale. The image was taken by JustJaredjr.com and then shared by the Archie Comics twitter account. Apa looks a lot like the recent redesign of the Archie character by artist Fiona Staples. Hey @kj_apa, we’re digging the hair […]
